“Great selection of drinks but not the best selection of food. What is on the menu is very good but a little more variety and this place would be perfect. The other vender windows do give this place many options but most close around 5pm so if you're going a little later for a drink you won't have a lot of food options.“
“Excellent cider experience from this Portland based cidery. Steve and I shared their Hineycrisp flavored cider and really enjoyed it. The flavor profile is dry, not too sweet, crisp clean and tart. Along with an apple flavor of course they prepared this cider with fermented champagne yeast. The apples are relatively local as they come from Washington and Oregon. The most refreshing I saw with this cider was it's dry finish. Very enjoyable cider all the way around!“
“AleFire = beer and hot sauce. That’s a damn good balance, like yin and yang. It’s a spot to chill and have some beers. But also for just stopping by and picking up some good hot sauce. There are three full refrigerators of hot sauce choices. Staff is helpful if you want to find something new.“
“New favorite!I stopped in to check it out and hang with a friend. It was amazing! If you love cider, you need to swing in and probably make it a regular stop.They have 25 rotating cider taps, a couple of beer taps, and various small bites (hummus and pita, chips and salsa, tots, salads).The 25 ciders are from a variety of cideries, including a house cider. They fill growlers, have crowlers, and offer flights of 4 or 6, 5oz ciders.“
“Audio note: Weird pounding upstairs. Good music, spacious dining area, unique taps, and good pizza. Food took a little longer because there was a meeting happening in a separate room. But worth the wait. Very good. Service was good. Server checked on us often. Made sure we were taken care of. Played vinyl records for music. Vinyl records are also for sale. Environment wasn't super loud. Bright and sunny inside. Parking can be a little tough but in a nice neighborhood. This all happened on a Friday afternoon.“
“Are you looking for a quiet, well lit place to meet and hang out with friends?! This is a little hidden gem located right on Washington Street.They have over 10 different ciders on tap, and a couple beers if that's your thing. We couldn't decide on one cider so my husband and I shared a large flight. While we enjoyed all the flavors we got I went with a strawberry mojito flavor and my husband went with a vanilla cider.They've also got some great snacks to order. I'm gluten free and was able to order a gluten free flatbread. Our waitress/cook warned us that the crusts are difficult to work with but it came out absolutely perfect and delicious. If you are gluten free or vegan this place has you covered.There's a couple of Nintendo's set up in the back where you can play old skool Super Mario Bros. Also they have huge, clean, and nice bathrooms. Make sure you get the code to the bathroom door when you order.I'm looking forward to coming back and getting a vanilla cider next time.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian and vegan options.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free crusts availableParking: Parking can be difficult when it's busy. Street parking only unless you pay to park in a garage.Kid-friendliness: While you could bring children inside, there really isn't anything for them to do. There is merchandise for sale within grabbing distance of toddlers so consider leaving the kids at home for this venue.“
“Awesome tap room- very spacious and professionally run. Zach and Avery and Cole made us feel right at home from the second we walked in. They have an extensive tap list of not only Portland Cider Co’s own vast cider offerings, but also other assorted beer styles and mixed drinks so that there’s something for everyone. Cheers to that!“
